The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A slow-paced, hands-off crafting game where you tap to guide the automatic expansion of a medieval town on a pixelated island.

What players say

Players say the game is fun for the first 15–20 hours but quickly runs out of content. The idle mechanics require constant clicking to keep running, and the prestige system only offers a multiplier with nothing new to unlock. Many also note the lack of achievements and a slow, grindy start.
